Siglent SDS1000X-HD - Bugs and "features" thread.

I'll send you my address for the bottle. I trust you to pick something nice.

Please do, I am a man of my word.

And if your reference for this is Keysight scope make note that their implementation is not correct[...]

Indeed. Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever used a non 7-bit I²C part in anger in the past 32 years as an EE. I completely forgot about the extended addressing.

Anyway, a fine bottle of scotch will find it's way to Croatia as soon as it knows where to go.

My friend,
I was just joking. There is no need for it, really.
My biggest reward is that I could help. Really, pleasure is all mine.

That does not mean, that if you ever pass through Rijeka, Croatia, let me know, and we can have a sit down a have a proper drink!

As for 10 bit I2C, I never used one either... But I encountered one on some device once. And I was confused that Keysight didn't do it properly. Luckily, my trusty Pico did....

My best,
Siniša

@BreakingOhmsLaw I suggest you to revise points #2 and #7.
On #2 clearly is not a bug. Veteran 66has explained why. If we using a Linux share we need to use this format.
On #7 you need to see if this incident can be reproduced. Usually an incident that can't be reproduced can't be called a bug. There were a few others incidents that crash the scope but I can't reproduced anymore. But also on all my scopes I encounter this at a moment in time.(Keysight, RTB2K, Micsig, Rigol).
Did you tried to reset to factory default, Secure erase, before reinstall the firmware?

New Firmware for 1000X HD - 1.1.3.8
I did not find 1.1.3.6 even on Chinese site, maybe in new units from factory.

2024/06/14
1.1.3.8
1. Optimize UI, change "on/off" to "On/Off".
2. Solve the problem that some numbers from 200-223 cannot be entered in the first byte of the IP address.
3. Standard software functions of FG and LA.

2024/05/22
1.1.3.6
1. Solve the problem of trigger holdoff fails.
2. Solve the problem of CAN decoding causing crashes with a small probability. 3. Modify the kernel s olve the problem that scpi cannot be
used on a computer with keysight driver installed
4. Solve the problem of advanced trigger (Qualified, Nth
Edge, Delay, Setup/Hold) parameters are not recalled.
5. Solve the problem of delay trigger level setting error.
6. Solve the problem of when the edge is set to Alternating, trigger jitter will occur when entering the other trigger type.
7. Solve some known problems.
8. Optimize waveform capture rate.
9. Optimize self calibration speed.
10. Optimize UI.

9. Optimize self calibration speed.

That would also be something for the SDS3000X HD.
If you start the Self-Cal there, you can confidently go shopping, vacuum the apartment, make dinner...

It's take about 5 minutes now.
Also waveform update does not seem to be faster, but I will keep measure in future.

L.E. In dots mode I have obtained 128 K.

5 minutes....Pah.
Just under 50 minutes and you'll be in my class.

The information in the data sheet only refers to a "sweet spot", a time base and certain settings anyway.
In the meantime, I've made my peace with it as long as it doesn't drop too much above and below the sweet spot.

Before the update was about 10- 12 min. I don't remember precisely ...
